A notable absence marked Altrincham's festive lights ceremony this past Saturday, as Manchester United forward Cunha, originally slated to attend, was conspicuously missing. Sources close to the club have since indicated that a sudden training ground incident earlier in the day led to his unexpected withdrawal, casting a momentary shadow over his weekend plans.
The incident, reportedly a minor collision or a "knock," is currently not believed to be a significant long-term concern. There's a prevailing sense of cautious optimism that the issue is more superficial than structurally damaging, suggesting his rehabilitation period, should there be one, would be brief. This offers a glimmer of hope amidst the usual anxieties surrounding player fitness.
However, the pressing question remains his availability for the crucial fixture against Everton. Despite initial suggestions labelling the injury as 'small,' the precise nature and the subsequent fitness assessment will undoubtedly be paramount. While club reporters hinted at his potential involvement, Manchester United's official channels have yet to issue any definitive statement regarding the forward's status, leaving fans and pundits awaiting clarity on this evolving situation.
